Overview

"Helping Moms find their Happy Place"

MUMZ is a mobile application that is developed for mothers to be able to search, meet and connect other mothers in the community for FREE. We would like to develop a virtual community of mothers building connections, organize activities for their kids and help build lasting friendships.

What’s in it for you?

  • Think Tinder for mums (and dads!) in Hong Kong, Singapore and India 
  • Swipe and connect with mom friends based on area, common interests, child’s age and favourite times to meet.
  • Find & create activities and playdates and see what’s happening around.
  • New Deals from fellow mumpreneurs and dadpreneurs!

Introduction       

It takes a village to raise a child”. 

MUMZ aims to be an "Enterprise with a Cause" that endeavors to be that village virtually across Asia.

Helping mothers to able to find, meet and connect with other mothers in the community through a mobile application and building a community of moms through events and activities. Launching with Hong Kong and soon available in India and Singapore, it’s about building that community of mums find their happy place.

Mumz is like 'Tinder for mums' (& dads too!).

One can swipe and find mom/dad friends based on location, common interests, children's age and favorite times to meet.

It’s a place to make connections, know about children & family activities, find & meet other parents.. in short: 

"Make Friends for Life!"

............................

How was MUMZ conceived?

ea1a5fe707253f311f8337c7577b21a60a511cc1.jpeg

“I grew up in a large extended family, playing with cousins over the summer break. I have fond memories of going to parks, climbing trees, having fun on the seesaw, sharing food, fun and laughter, sleepovers and sharing space with all my cousins, uncles & aunts. Those memories are still deeply etched in my mind. I was always fed by multiple pair of hands, nurtured and loved in a secure environment, surrounded by my extended family and friends.

Living in Hong Kong as an expat and a new mother, away from home, I yearned for the same warm and fuzzy feelings I experienced growing up, especially for my son.

I decided and persevered to create that community where similar-minded mothers could meet, make friends while their kids played happily (mostly!), discuss life goals or shopping trends, have a place to connect with your likes & voila the idea of  MUMZ was born. Like a dating app - for mums!” 

I see MUMZ emerging as a family that embraces all mothers help each other find a happy place

In a faceless world of mobiles, MUMZ rekindles human interactions by connecting all mothers across Hong Kong in a user-friendly mobile application. MUMZ has been carefully designed to provide a secure environment with user-controlled privacy settings.

At MUMZ, expecting mums, single mums, stay-at-home mums, working mums- ALL mums can parent while having fun. We strongly support and believe that:

“Happy mothers create Happy families”. 

MEETMUMZ is a great place to have adult connections & conversation with like-minded people who may potentially be friends like family. Every mum can bond with each other over a coffee, lunch or lend a shoulder to share, vent, interact, lift and empower themselves to form their own “circle of mum-friendship” - your personal sounding board.

Our Visit to the centre, meeting the children and the volunteer team, absolutely resonated with their belief:
